Makes you think of how many 'best friends' she had, btw- Molly, Linda, Julie.
Is that weird? I've had a lot of "best friends" through life. My best friend when I was a little kid was the girl across the street Erica and her sister Carrie. And my school friend was Kris -- all of whom I stopped talking to by high school -- Kris in 6th grade and Erica in 8th grade -- I haven't seen any of them in years. My high school best friends were Jessie for the whole time, Tamera in 9th and 10th grade, and Esther for 11th and 12th grade. I haven't talked to any of them since. My early college best friend was Mooey -- and we still talk and see each other, but not as often as "best friends" because she works at NASA and I am still in school. My current best friend is actually my longest friend Rachel who I've known since my first year of college -- and we even stayed friends when she studied abroad in Australia for a semester! This is probably because of similar place in life -- we were the same major in college and we are both in the same PhD program. Anyway, my point (yes, I had a point) is that it isn't unusual to have several best friends, even in a short period of time because intrests change and people drift apart.
And one more thing- is it possible for a senior and a freshman, for example, to share a room in college (I assume so, but I don't trust my experience- which is none)?
Yes. My Junior year, I lived in a suite of 6 -- 4 juniors, 1 5th year senior (who happened to be pregnant and planned to keep her baby in a dresser in her dorm room), and 1 freshman. I felt sorry for poor Liz being put into such a weird situation. Actually, I sort of felt bad for myself for being in such a situation!
